IEEE Press - Wiley, 2000. - 428 p. This book is dedicated to all the engineers who have participated in the pioneering development of FACTS technology.FACTS concept and general system consideration
Power semiconductor devices
Voltage-sourced converters
Self- and line-commtated current-sourced converters
Static shunt compensators: SVC and STATCOM
Static series compensators: GCSC, TSSC, TCSC and SSSC
Static voltage and phase angle regulators: TCVR and TCPAR
Combined compensators: unified power flow controller (UPFC) and interline power flow controller (IPFC)
Special purpose FACTS controllers: NGH-SSR damping scheme and thyristor-controlled braking resistor
